Re: GOOGLE search problems

Hello pbe70 and welcome,

If you still require assistance, please do the following:

Please download FixWareout

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/file...Fixwareout.exe

Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.
  • The fix will begin, follow the prompts.
  • You will be asked to reboot your computer, please do so.
  • Your system may take longer than usual to load. This is normal.
  • Once the desktop loads post the text that will open C:\fixwareout\report.txt which I will need in your next reply.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Open HijackThis and click on 'Do a System Scan Only'. 'Check' the following entries:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE
O16 - DPF: {1D4DB7D2-6EC9-47A3-BD87-1E41684E07BB} - http://ak.exe.imgfarm.com/images/noc...up1.0.0.15.cab


Click 'Fix Checked' and close HijackThis.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Please run this online scan to search for any remnants. It can take some time, so please be patient and allow it to run it's full course:

Perform an online scan with Internet Explorer with Panda ActiveScan
  1. Click on located at the bottom of the page.
  2. A "pop up" window will appear. * Please ensure that your pop up blocker doesn't block it *
  3. Enter your e-mail address, country, and state & click "Free Online Scan" *The download of the 8 MB Panda's ActiveX control will take place*
Begin the scan by selecting
  • If it finds any malware, it will offer you a report.
  • Please ignore any entry it finds and the offer to buy the program to remove the entry, as we will address this later.
  • Click on then click
* You needn't remain online while it's doing the scan but you have to re-connect after it has finished to see the report.

Re: GOOGLE search problems

You're welcome, Paul.

Please copy this page to Notepad and save to your desktop for reference as you will not have any browsers open while you are carrying out portions of these instructions.

Also be sure to carry out the instructions in the sequence listed below.

***************************************************

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Close any open browsers.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Disable Windows Defender as it may interfere with the fixe below:
  • Open Windows Defender.
  • Click on Tools, Options.
  • Scroll down and uncheck Turn on real-time protection (recommended).
  • After you uncheck this, click on the Save button and close Windows Defender.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
  • Under Main choose: Select All
    Click the Empty Selected button.
If you use Firefox browser
  • Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
    Click the Empty Selected button.
    NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.

  • Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
    Click the Empty Selected button.
    NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Go to Start->Run and type in regedit and hit OK.

Open notepad and copy/paste the entire text in the code box below: (don't forget to copy and paste REGEDIT4)

Code:
REGEDIT4

[-hkey_classes_root\clsid\{147A976F-EEE1-4377-8EA7-4716E4CDD239}]

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Stats\{9FF05104-B030-46FC-94B8-81276E4E27DF}]
Save the file as "delete.reg". Make sure to save it with the quotes. Choose to "Save type as - All Files"
It should look like this:

Double click on the delete.reg file and choose Yes to merge/add it to the registry. You may delete the file afterwards.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Reboot your system.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I see portions of Symantec, along with McAfee AV. Did you recently uninstall Symantec?

How is your system behaving now?

Re: GOOGLE search problems

Hi Ried, Thanks to you I am very happy after I followed your directions from your first reply my computer seems to be back to normal. So, is it still necessary to follow the last steps I seem to get lost around this area of the instructions?
"Open notepad and copy/paste the entire text in the code box below: (don't forget to copy and paste REGEDIT4)"
copy/paste the text in the code box? I'm sorry. I think I am over thinking it. Also I have recently deleted Symantec it was old version and I think McAfee prompted me to do so when I downloaded the new version McAfee.

Re: GOOGLE search problems

Hi,

Yes, those registry keys need to be removed. Here...I'll create the regfix for you, all you need do is now follow these instructions instead:

Download the attached pbe70.zip file to your desktop.

Double click on the pbe70.zip folder, then double click on the .reg file within. Click yes to allow it to merge into your registry.

-------------------------------------------

Symantec did not uninstall cleanly. Here is a guide for uninstalling Norton, including uninstallers. Be sure to use the uninstaller for the version of Norton/Symantec that is active on your system. --> http://basconotw.mvps.org/SymRem.htm

-------------------------------------------

After completing the above, your logs are clean and good you're good to go. The following procedure will clear out the tools we've used as well as the backups and quarantines created by the fix. It will also reset your System Restore by flushing out previous restore points (which contain the infections) and create a new restore point.

Click Start > Run and copy/paste, or type the following bolded text into the Run box and click OK:

ComboFix /u

--------------------------------------------------------------------


To help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programs if you do not already have them:

McAfee Site Advisor--free version. The folks there check out websites and based on their findings, rate it as Safe, Unknown, Caution, or Bad.

SpywareBlaster 3.5.1 to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place. Install & update SpywareBlaster with the latest definitions. After you have updated, click the button - enable protection for all unprotected items.
  • It will block any bad ActiveX from running in Internet Explorer and Firefox if it's listed in their database (which you should update frequently). To view their database and list of restricted sites, launch the program and click on each of the tabs on the main display page.

IESpyAD Zoned Out to block access to malicious websites so you cannot be redirected to them from an infected site or email. This severely impairs attempts to infect your system as it basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.


Update, and scan with your onboard Anti Malware and Anti Virus programs regularly. Without regular updates you will not be protected when new malicious programs are released.


In light of your recent issue, I'm sure you'd like to avoid any future infections. Please take a look at these well written articles:

PC Safety and Security--What Do I Need?

HOW DID I GET INFECTED IN THE FIRST PLACE? by Tony Klein
MAKING INTERNET EXPLORER SAFER
Understanding and Using Firewalls

**Be very wary with any security software that is advertised in popups or in other ways. They are not only usually of no use, but often have malware in them.

-----------------------------------------------------

Follow the list above and the potential for infection will reduce dramatically.

Re: GOOGLE search problems

Ried,
I ran into two problems first after pasteing "ComboFix /u" in run a warning pops up and reads "Windows cannot find 'combofix'?

Second, while trying to run IESpyAD Zoned Out once I get to figure 9 of procedure its like the zoned out box freezes and the "find" area and the checking for errors scanning display are missing? I run my cursor across and it has hour glass symbol like I need to wait not sure
Maybe I'm not giving it enough time or something?

I had no problem with these two, McAfee Site Advisor and SpywareBlaster 3.5.1

Sorry for being a pain! Thank you for your expert advice!!

Re: GOOGLE search problems

My apologies, I had meant to edit that out that command. Please do the following:

Ensure Windows Auto Update is Enabled
*Go to Start>Run - type wuaucpl.cpl
*Tick on the checkbox - "Automatically download the updates, and install them on the schedule that I specify".
Click on "OK".

Create a new System Restore point
Click Start >> Run - type SYSDM.CPL & press Enter
* Select the System Restore Tab
* Tick on the checkbox - "Turn off System Restore on all drives"
Click Apply
* Then untick the same checkbox & click OK
This will flush out previous restore points (which contain the infections) and create a new restore point.

**************************************************************************************

Regarding IESpyAd, I've not run across that issue yet. I would suggest posting that issue in the General Computer Security forum and hopefully someone will have run into that same issue and have some ideas for you.

Re: GOOGLE search problems

I went to system restore and the box was already checked so I think it was already turned off. I left it with no check mark in the box and reading (C:)Monitoring and also Disk space to use is at 12% (22598 MB). Is this correct?

Re: GOOGLE search problems

I imagine so as Windows will use what it feels is best. I'd check on my system for you, but I do not want to flush out my previous restore points right now.
